Description

NAV methods to set up and relevant device in wireless communication system
Technical field
The present embodiments relate to communication technical field, and more particularly, in wireless communication system NAV methods to set up and relevant device.
Background technology
With the development and the popularization of intelligent terminal of mobile Internet, data traffic shows the increasing of explosion type Long trend.WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network, WLAN) is by it at a high speed One of advantage in terms of rate and low cost, mobile broadband access technology as current main flow.
Based on Institute of Electrical and Electric Engineers (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, IEEE) formulated based on 802.11 agreements (802.11a/g/n/ac of such as main flow) WLAN in, can include multiple Basic Service Sets (Basic Service Set, BSS), each BSS In can include access point (English:Access Point, referred to as:AP website) and one Or website (the English of multiple non-access point classes associated with the AP:None Access Point Station, Referred to as:Non-AP STA), Non-AP STA are referred to as STA as follows.
In the WLAN based on 802.11 agreements, the access control scheme of wireless medium resource is mainly adopted With distributed coordination function (Distributed Coordination Function, DCF).Under DCF patterns, Wireless medium is that the occupancy of wireless channel is used based on Carrier Sense Multiple Access/conflict avoidance The competition of (Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance, CSMA/CA) Mechanism.STA or AP first listens to channel status before data are sent, if channel duration is idle one section Time, then carry out random back, if keep out of the way end channel it is still idle, can really start data Transmission.
It is used as judging that the carrier sense of channel busy-idle condition is divided into Physical carrier sense in DCF (Physical Carrier Sensing, PCS) and virtual carrier sensing in wireless network communication (Virtual Carrier Sensing, VCS) two ways.Clear channel assessment (CCA) (the Clear Channel that PCS result is provided with physical layer Assessment, CCA) represent, and CCA be generally based on signal detection (Signal Detection, ) or bag detection (Packet Detection, PD) thresholding and/or energy measuring (Energy Detection) SD Thresholding judges the busy-idle condition of present channel.When CCA results are higher than a certain given thresholding, then recognize It is busy for channel status, is then the free time on the contrary.What deserves to be explained is, for based on SD's or PD CCA, STA or AP can be distinguished pair by setting different CCA thresholdings so as to " tight inside but loose outside " Wait to come from local BSS and overlapping BSS (Overlapping BSS, OBSS) signal.Wherein, OBSS is also referred to as Inter BSS, usually, and mac frame can be in physical layer by adding physics packet header or leading quilt Be encapsulated as PPDU, STA or AP can by media access control (Media Access Control, MAC address information) in frame frame head or the physical layer convergence procedure (Physical for carrying the mac frame Layer Convergence Procedure, PLCP) protocol Data Unit (PLCP Protocol Data Unit, PPDU packet header) or it is leading in signaling domain in the BSS marks (BSS in such as HE-SIG-A Color colour codes) come judge one receive PPDU whether come from local BSS or OBSS.
VCS sets network allocation vector (Network by the Duration fields in mac frame frame head Allocation Vector, NAV) complete, the initial times of Duration periods is carries The PPDU end of transmission moment of the Duration information.NAV can be understood as a Timer counting Device, represent channel also want it is occupied how long, each monitor STA or AP maintain a NAV Counter (software or hardware are realized).NAV value elapses continuous reduction over time, in NAV values Before reducing to zero (even if CCA results are the free time), STA or AP think that wireless channel is busy and stops all the time Only channel competition and data are sent.
Communication link transmitting station (including STA or AP) and/or receiving station (including STA or AP) can be by setting the Duration fields in the mac frame frame head that it sends come to neighbours STA Or AP broadcast its reserved channel use time or current transmission chance (Transmit Opportunity, TXOP remaining time).Usually, PPDU purpose receiving station (including STA or AP) is Itself NAV counter is updated without the Duration information in the PPDU.Meanwhile, place Other websites (including STA or AP) around communication link are needed according to the mac frame received In Duration fields numerical values recited come judge whether update the NAV counters of itself, work as reception The Duration numerical value arrived is more than itself current remaining count value of NAV counters, then is receiving NAV count values are set to after the PPDU ends of transmission represented by the Duration fields that newly receive Count value.Special instruction, in current 802.11ax standard discussions, in PPDU packet header Can be comprising a TXOP field in the signaling symbols of (also referred to as leading), it is to indicate current TXOP In still remaining transmission time.It is functionally equivalent to also placed a Duration field in physical layer. That is, STA or AP can be by the TXOP in the physics packet header signaling of the PPDU in transmission And/or the Duration information in entrained mac frame frame head come to neighbours STA or AP notify or Update the STA or AP NAV counters.It is appreciated that in the signaling of PPDU physics packet header Duration fields in TXOP fields and mac frame frame head are referred to as NAV Duration.
Obviously, above-mentioned NAV settings and the existing rule updated are effectively guaranteed the letter in adjacent domain The unicity that road is used, it is to avoid interfering and collide between transmission link.But which also limits neighbouring Concurrent number of links in region so that network area handling capacity is difficult to further lifting.It is of future generation 802.11 agreement 802.11ax introduce space multiplexing technique to lift the WLAN level of resources utilizations. STA or AP can improve CCA threshold values, so original link that can not simultaneously and concurrently transmit, can be with Concurrent transmission spatially is carried out, so as to lift network throughput.But in WLAN deployment increasingly Under intensive trend, if continuing to continue to use current NAV renewal rules, dense deployment can not be played Advantage, also can not just meet growing business demand.

Embodiment
Below in conjunction with the accompanying drawing in the embodiment of the present invention, the technical scheme in the embodiment of the present invention is carried out Clearly and completely describe, it is clear that described embodiment is a part of embodiment of the present invention, rather than Whole embodiments.Based on the embodiment in the present invention, those of ordinary skill in the art are not making creation Property work on the premise of the every other embodiment that is obtained, should all belong to the scope of protection of the invention.
The embodiment of the present invention can apply to that multiple BSS, BSS can be included in WLAN, WLAN In can include an AP and one or more STA associated with the AP.
AP, also referred to as wireless access points or focus etc..AP is that mobile subscriber enters cable network Access point, major deployments inside family, inside buildings and garden, typical covering radius be tens Rice is to rice up to a hundred, it is of course also possible to be deployed in open air.AP is equivalent to a connection wired network and wirelessly The bridge of net, its main function is to connect together each wireless network clients, then by wireless network Network access network based on ethernet.
STA, can be wireless communications chips, wireless senser or wireless communication terminal.For example:Support The mobile phone of WiFi communication function, the panel computer for supporting WiFi communication function, support WiFi communication The set top box of function, the intelligent television for supporting WiFi communication function, the intelligence for supporting WiFi communication function Wearable device and the computer for supporting WiFi communication function.
At present, the main accepted standards of STA or AP are the series of IEEE 802.11.Specifically, STA Or AP can be the equipment with WiFi (Wireless Fidelity, Wireless Fidelity) chip.Alternatively, STA or AP can be the equipment for supporting 802.11ax standards, still optionally further, the STA or AP Can be a variety of WLAN such as support 802.11ac, 802.11n, 802.11g, 802.11b and 802.11a The equipment of standard.
With the development of the communication technology, in order to improve the throughput of system under intensive scene, space is introduced Multiplexing (English:Spatial Reuse, referred to as:SR) concept, certain scene or under the conditions of permit Perhaps the communication link of two or more than two (that is, is made using identical running time-frequency resource within the same period With same channel) it is transmitted.Specifically it can be understood as:STA or AP in local BSS are being detectd Hear when having the PPDU for coming from OBSS on present channel, even if the signal intensity of the PPDU is higher than - 82dBm, but is below OBSS PD thresholding OBSSCCA thresholdings either SR CCA Limit, it is however generally that, OBSS PD thresholdings can meet -82dBm<OBSS PD thresholdings<- 62dBm, should STA or AP in local BSS (such as, can not influence currently to carry out under certain condition OBSS communications) carried out by certain means (such as, adjusting transmit power) to be multiplexed same channel Spatial reuse link transmission.Citing, as shown in figure 1, AP1 sends downlink data (AP1 to STA1 Link between STA1 is properly termed as primary link) while, STA2 is complete using primary link Portion or portion of time frequency resources and AP2 carry out transmitting uplink data, and (link between AP2 and STA2 can be with Referred to as spatial reuse link).So-called primary link and spatial reuse link are a relative concepts, primary There is the transmission time of common factor or spatial reuse link in transmission time in link and spatial reuse link It is the subset of primary link transmission times.One link A is for another chain starting during its transmission For the B of road, if link B transmitting terminal STA or AP is in link A transmitting terminal STA or AP Or/and within receiving terminal STA or AP effective communication distance, and link B has used link A complete Portion or partial running time-frequency resource, it is possible to claim the primary link that link A is link B;Corresponding, Link B is exactly spatial reuse link for link A.Usually, primary link can be up Transmission link (transmission i.e. from STA to AP) or downlink transfer link (i.e. from AP to STA transmission), Fig. 1 gives the situation of primary downlink transmission.Spatial reuse link can also It is uplink either downlink transfer, Fig. 1 is illustrated with the up example that is transmitted as, and spatial reuse Link is normally at the BSSs different with primary link.Usually, different BSS PPDU can be carried Different BSS marks, BSS marks can be the BSS colors in the leading signaling domains of PPDU, Or, can be the BSS identifiers in the address field in the mac frame frame head that is carried in PPDU BSSID, it is possibility to have other forms of expression.
In order to be able to spatial reuse/concurrent transmission, had agreed in current 802.11ax standard discussions when satisfaction During certain concurrent condition, the NAV information in OBSS PPDU can be ignored, concurrently to pass It is defeated.It is specific to discuss that description has following two sections of words:
1) as OBSS PPDU received signal strength indicator (Received Signal Strength Indication, RSSI) it is less than the presently used OBSS PD thresholdings of STA or AP, and meeting It is some it is undetermined under the conditions of, the STA or AP can consider and do not received at all the OBSS PPDU, So as to also with regard to updating the NAV of itself without the NAV Duration information in the OBSS PPDU Counter.Compared to the standard before 11ax, this just relaxes the rule that NAV sets and updated so that STA or AP have the channel that more chance demultiplexing OBSS are being used.
English can be:
A STA should regard an Inter-BSS PPDU with a valid PHY header and that has a receive power/RSSI below the OBSS PD level used by the receiving STA and that meets additional TBD conditions,as not having been received at all(e.g., should not update its NAV),except that the medium condition shall indicate BUSY during the period of time that is taken by the receiving STA to validate that the PPDU is from an Inter-BSS,but not longer than the time indicated as the length of the PPDU payload.The OBSS PD level is greater than the minimum receive sensitivity level.
2) on the basis of 1), it is further noted that STA or AP can by reduce transmission power come OBSS PD thresholdings used in lifting.If that is, the STA or AP has the ability with lower Power be transmitted, then it can judge OBSS PPDU with higher OBSS PD thresholdings.From And, the STA or AP can ignore higher RSSI OBSS PPDU, and increase channel is judged as sky Between probability, improve the concurrent chance of spatial reuse.
English can be:
An 11ax STA regards a valid OBSS PPDU as not having been received at all (e.g.,should not update its NAV),except that the medium condition shall indicate BUSY during the period of time that is taken by the receiving STA to validate that the PPDU is from an Inter-BSS,but not longer than the time indicated as the length of the PPDU payload if the RXPWR of the received PPDU is below the OBSS_PD threshold and TBD conditions are met,noting that the OBSS_PD threshold is accompanied by a TXPWR value and a reduction in the TXPWR may be accompanied by an TBD increase in the OBSS_PD threshold value.
It is preceding to have addressed, NAV Duration information included in a PPDU (whether physics bag TXOP fields in head signaling domain or the Duration fields in mac frame frame head) the term of validity The finish time of initial time exactly PPDU transmission.Then, as shown in Figure 6, although receive STA Or AP can ignore OBSS PPDU1 NAV1 (PPDU1 here may be considered second PPDU, the similar understanding of description below, is repeated no more), but if it is receiving the OBSS PPDU1 The NAV0 count values at (T0 moment) are not 0 before, and judge institute in the reception STA or AP (a certain moment between T0 and T1), the NAV0 when stating PPDU1 for same OBSS PPDU 0 is not reduced to yet, then the STA or AP will reduce to 0 moment (T2 moment) when the NAV0 always The channel competition of concurrent transmission could be started.Especially, if the NAV0 is in the OBSS PPDU1 The end of transmission moment (T1 moment) does not reduce to 0 yet, although the then NAV1 of the OBSS PPDU1 Information has been ignored, but the STA or AP still can not start concurrent transmission.
In fact, if the NAV0 be set by the PPDU0 from same OBSS/update (this In PPDU0 may be considered the first PPDU, following description is similar to be understood, is repeated no more), then The STA or AP originally can without just starting concurrent transmission when the NAV0 reduces to 0, And just start concurrent transmission after same OBSS can be come from judging the PPDU1.It can this The reason for sample is done is that PPDU0 and PPDU1 one in front and one in back is described both from same OBSS The judgement and decision that can be concurrent that STA or AP makes according to PPDU1, must can match institute State OBSS newest/current transmission state.If that the STA or AP are in PPDU1 Transmission during and/or its NAV1 term of validity in initiate concurrent transmission (it is assumed that meet it is some it is specific simultaneously Clockwork spring part), transmission that can't be to PPDU0 (in fact PPDU0 has been passed before PPDU1) And/or its NAV0 term of validity is impacted with the communication in the overlapping period of the NAV1 terms of validity.
In a word, in the previous case, it is impossible to STA or AP is started concurrent transmission earlier, it is impossible to most The chance of the utilization channel concurrent transmission of limits.
Therefore, how make it that potential concurrent STA or AP in the case of current NAV non-zeros, are sentencing Break and start concurrent transmission as early as possible when to meet the concurrent condition of spatial reuseCan be regular by changing NAV, So that potential concurrent STA or AP at some in particular cases, can not only ignore in current PPDU NAV information, and the NAV count values itself being set can be ignored, concurrent transmission is initiated as early as possible, Improve the efficiency of spatial reuse.
Embodiment one:
Referring to Fig. 1, the embodiments of the invention provide NAV methods to set up in a kind of wireless communication system, Comprise the following steps:
S01:STA or AP receives the 2nd PPDU, wherein, the 2nd PPDU and the first PPDU From same OBSS, wherein, the first PPDU be before the 2nd PPDU by the STA or What AP was received, wherein, the STA or the current NAV of AP are updated based on the first PPDU;
S02:If the STA or AP, which is met, allows the condition of concurrent transmission, the STA or AP are neglected The slightly current NAV, carries out concurrent transmission.
Certain STA or AP can be preserved for triggering the OBSS PPDU for setting or updating NAV In entrained BSS marks, such as BSS color or MAC in PPDU physical preambles signaling domain In frame address field BSS ID (BSS ID can be carried at transmission address in MAC Address domain or In person's destination address field).By compare BSS mark, judge recently received PPDU whether with The PPDU of NAV for triggering the last setting/renewal comes from same OBSS.These actions It can be supplemented as STA or AP action, although not described in S01 or S02.
Alternatively, it is specially one of following several ways to ignore the current NAV:
Mode one:
If the finish time of the current NAV is earlier than or equal to corresponding to the 2nd PPDU TXOP or the NAV Duration of carrying finish time, then ignore the current NAV;
It is above-mentioned earlier than or the situation that is equal to can see the example shown in Fig. 6-Fig. 8.Fig. 6 show NAV0 Finish time be later than at the beginning of NAV1 and carve and the finish time earlier than NAV1, Fig. 7 is shown NAV0 finish time, Fig. 8 showed NAV0 finish time before quarter at the beginning of NAV1 It is identical with NAV1 finish time.
In general, Fig. 6-Fig. 8 examples are not limited to, STA or AP are received before the T0 moment to be come Itself is have updated from OBSS0 PPDU0, and based on the NAV information NAV0 in PPDU0 NAV count values.The STA or AP in T0 receptions to PPDU1, and in PPDU1 transmission A certain moment T2 ', the STA or AP before finish time T1 detect PPDU1 and come from OBSS1, then under conditions of concurrent transmission is met, the STA or AP can ignore institute in PPDU1 Comprising NAV information NAV1 (without updating itself NAV according to NAV1).On this basis, If OBSS0 and OBSS1 are same OBSS, and NAV0 finish time after T2 ', then The STA or AP can further ignore the NAV0 between moment T2 ' and the NAV1 term of validity cut-off time Count.Then, the STA or AP is after moment T2 ' or its and NAV0 is counted before reducing to 0 The a certain moment can just start concurrent transmission (if NAV0 has reduced to 0 before the T2 ', need not This case is invented, and the STA or AP can just start concurrently according to the rule in existing standard after T2 ' Transmission), without restarting concurrent transmission after the wait T2 moment.
Mode two:
If the finish time of the current NAV is later than or equal to corresponding to the 2nd PPDU TXOP finish time or the NAV Duration of carrying finish time, then ignore the current NAV Until the 2nd PPDU corresponding to TXOP finish time or carrying NAV Duration knot The beam moment.
NAV0 finish time is illustrated in figure 9 after NAV1 finish time.
With reference to Figure 10, it is more directly perceived for the sake of, the PPDU0 in embodiment one and PPDU1 is had Body turns to the Trigger trigger frames (Trigger Frame, be denoted as TF) introduced in 802.11ax, also It is to be appreciated that PPDU0 is TF0, PPDU1 is TF1.Provide the STA gone for such as Fig. 6-9 Or AP NAV updates the workflow with concurrent transmission, although the NAV0 for the citing that Figure 10 is drawn With NAV1 and NAV0 ' with NAV finish time it is simple be depicted as finish time.
STA0 listens to the trigger frame TF0 for coming from OBSS AP (for adjusting first in local BSS OBSS STA1 uplink is spent, wherein STA1 can refer to a STA, can also refer to one group of STA), It is assumed that the RSSI that TF0 is reached at STA0 is not less than the OBSS PD thresholdings that STA0 is used, or STA0 can not meet the condition (if any) of permission concurrent transmission entrained in TF0, STA0 NAV information NAV0 according to entrained by TF0 is updated to the NAV of itself (it is assumed that being taken in TF0 The NAV0 of band is more than STA0 itself NAV), the NAV of the STA0 after renewal finish time is T2.Meanwhile, which OBSS STA0 records trigger this NAV renewals PPDU under preserving comes from Information.
According to existing rule, scheduling of the OBSS STA1 in TF0 is indicated, sends upstream data (UL PPDU_1), while the NAV information NAV0 ' in PPDU_1 is set at the end of the PPDU_1 Quarter starts to the time span between the T2 moment.If STA0 have received PPDU_1, it need not The NAV of itself is updated according to NAV information entrained in PPDU_1, because in PPDU_1 NAV0 ' numerical value is not more than synchronization STA0 NAV.
After the PPDU_1 ends of transmission, OBSS AP have sent another in current TXOP again Trigger frame TF1, it is assumed that the RSSI for the TF1 that STA0 is received is less than the OBSS PD that STA0 is used Thresholding (such as OBSS AP reduce the power for sending TF1), or STA0 can be met in TF1 The condition of entrained permission concurrent transmission is (if any, because what TF0 and TF1 may be dispatched Uplink user is different, so the condition of its permission concurrent transmission carried may also be different), then according to most New 11ax standards, STA0 can be as TF1 not be received, so as to be taken without going to comprehend in TF1 The NAV information NAV1 of band.But because STA0 NAV is not 0, STA0 before the T2 moment Concurrent transmission can not be started before the T2 moment.
If in fact, STA0 is judging that TF1 comes from OBSS or and after meeting spatial reuse condition (T2 ' moment), it is that the transmission (such as PPDU_2) in OBSS will not be caused to start concurrent transmission Interference.According to the method in embodiment one, STA0 judges that itself NAV updates oneself and TF1 identicals OBSS, then STA0 can ignore the NAV of itself since the T2 ' moment, until NAV1 knot The beam moment (in Figure 10, NAV1 finish time is identical just with NAV0 finish time).Then, STA0 just can be before the T2 moment sometime (such as T2 ') start-up space multiplexing concurrent transmission.
Alternatively, the STA or AP also includes before concurrent transmission is carried out:The STA or AP is carried out Channel competition carries out the transmission opportunity of concurrent transmission to obtain.
Alternatively, the condition of the permission concurrent transmission includes:If CCA the doors current STA or AP Limit value is set greater than some preset value, when the STA or AP detects the 2nd PPDU received RSSI be less than or equal to the current CCA threshold values of the STA or AP or improve after CCA thresholdings Value;Or the STA or AP is in idle (CCA idle) states of CCA or STA the or AP institutes The concurrent transmission link of potential foundation is a near point communication link or the 2nd PPDU middle fingers received Showing allows at least one or more than one the combination when concurrent transmission.
Alternatively, for the transmission between the AP in the local BSS belonging to a STA and a STA Link (either uplink or downlink transfer), if meeting one or a combination set of following condition, Then the transmission link between the AP and the STA can be referred to as near point communication link:
The STA and AP distance is less than or less than or equal to default threshold value;
Or,
The RSSI for the PPDU transmitted by the AP that the STA is received is more than or more than or equal to default RSSI critical values;
Or,
The RSSI that the AP receives the PPDU transmitted by the STA is more than or more than or equal to default RSSI critical value.
Alternatively, indicate to allow concurrent transmission to specifically include in the 2nd PPDU received:
In the PPDU of 802.11ax forms, can in HE-SIG-A or HE-SIG-B or Mac frame frame head part increases by 1 bit SR allowed flag configured informations, indicates whether to allow simultaneously Hair transmission;And/or;In the PPDU of Legacy forms, 1 can be increased in mac frame frame head Individual bit SR allowed flag configured informations, indicate whether to allow concurrent transmission.
Specifically it is appreciated that as follows:
In PPDU (including data frame, RTS or CTS the or Trigger Frame of 802.11ax forms Deng control frame, or management frame etc.) in, can HE-SIG-A or HE-SIG-B common part (n is big to 1 bit of (common portion) or mac frame frame head increase SR allowed flag or n In 1 integer) individual bit SR allowed flag, or some increased concurrent transmission field (SR Field) (such as interference threshold Interference level or jamming margin Interference margin's) is special It is worth (such as complete zero or other particular value), indicates whether to allow concurrent transmission;And/or
In the PPDU of Legacy forms (such as RTS or CTS or Trigger frame control frames, Or management frame etc.), 1 bit SR allowed flag or n (n can be increased in mac frame frame head For the integer more than 1) individual bit SR allowed flag, or some increased concurrent transmission field (SR field) (such as interference threshold Interference level or jamming margin Interference margin) Particular value (such as complete zero or other particular value), indicate whether allow concurrent transmission;
Wherein, particular locations of the SR allowed flag in PPDU can be found in Fig. 2-4.
Alternatively, the PPDU of the 802.11ax forms includes data frame, RTS or CTS or Trigger The control frames such as Frame or management frame;The PPDU of the Legacy forms include RTS or CTS or The control frames such as Trigger frame or management frame.
Still optionally further, CCA thresholdings, can be detection of preamble (Preamble Detection) thresholding, Or signal detection (Signal Detection) thresholding or bag detection (Packet Detection) thresholding or energy It is one or more in amount detection (Energy Detection) thresholding or WiFi signal detection threshold Combination.
Still optionally further, the preset value can be minimum or default detection of preamble or signal detection or Bag detection threshold value;It can also be default or minimum energy measuring threshold value;Can be it is default or Minimum WiFi signal detection threshold value;It may also be other predetermined threshold values.
Specifically it is appreciated that as follows:
Wherein, the preset value can be default or minimum detection of preamble/signal detection/bag detection threshold Value is (under such as 20MHz system bandwidths, for-the 82dBm of acquiescence;Or under 40MHz system bandwidths, be - 79dBm), can specifically refer to solve signal it is leading in the case of the threshold value that uses;Can also be Default or minimum energy measuring threshold value (under such as 20MHz system bandwidths, for-the 62dBm of acquiescence), Can specifically refer to can not solve signal or can not solve signal it is leading in the case of the threshold value that uses; Can be that default or minimum WiFi signal detection threshold value (is silent under such as 20MHz system bandwidths - the 72dBm recognized), can specifically refer to can not solve signal it is leading but can be judged as WiFi or The threshold value used in the case of 802.11ax signals;It may also be other predetermined threshold values.
